Luo Qinghan held the humanoid pillow with one hand, and said coldly while suppressing anger.

"If I didn't come to see you, I wouldn't know that you were sleeping with other men behind my back!"

Xiao Xixi blinked, looking blank: "Which man did I sleep with?"

Luo Qinghan threw the humanoid pillow in front of her and motioned for her to look at it for herself.

Xiao Xixi looked down at the humanoid pillow, and her somewhat confused brain started to work slowly, and finally understood what Luo Qinghan meant.

She shouted injustice: "This is just a pillow!"

Luo Qinghan: "A pillow is just a pillow, why do you make it look like a man? You still hug it to sleep, and hug it so tightly, don't you feel ashamed?"

Xiao Xixi: "Because I miss you so much, I miss you so much that I can't sleep, I have no choice but to have someone help me make such a pillow, I treat it as you, and sleep with it at night , so that you can sleep."

The more she talked, the more aggrieved she became, and her mouth became flat, looking like a pitiful little daughter-in-law who was annoyed.

Luo Qinghan was startled.

He thought he was thinking about Xixi unilaterally.

Unexpectedly, Xixi was also missing him.

It was like a gentle hand gently caressed his heart.

His full of jealousy and unhappiness vanished in an instant.

Luo Qinghan sat beside her, reached out and took her into his arms, coaxing her in a low voice.

Xiao Xixi leaned against his arms, stretched out her arms around his waist, and hummed softly.

"I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect you to kill me as soon as you meet."

Luo Qinghan: "It was my fault, I shouldn't have murdered you."

Xiao Xixi: "I don't accept verbal confessions?"

Luo Qinghan rationalized the loss first, and said with a good temper: "Tell me, what do you want me to do to forgive me?"

Xiao Xixi: "You have to give me something as compensation."

Luo Qinghan: "What do you want?"

Xiao Xixi: "Take off your clothes."

Luo Qinghan was stunned.

He lowered his head and looked at her in disbelief.

"Undress for what?"

Xiao Xixi withdrew from his arms and urged, "If you want to take it off, take it off."

In the middle of the night, a man and a widow lived together in the same room, and the two were in the same mind. Undressing at this time, isn't it...

Luo Qinghan took a deep look at Xixi.

He slowly took off his coat, and was about to untie his belt when he saw Xiao Xixi grabbed his coat and put it on the humanoid pillow.

She took the pillow and clothes into her arms, buried her face in it, and rubbed it hard, she said with satisfaction.

"With your scent on the pillow, I will definitely sleep better at night!"

Luo Qinghan: "..."

It turned out that she asked him to undress for this!

The unease came out again.

"I'm all here, why are you still holding a pillow and not letting go?"

Xiao Xixi looked up at him and muttered, "You can't stay here tonight."

Luo Qinghan was speechless.

Although the empress dowager had already been driven to the imperial temple by him, she still had the punishment of immobilizing the imperial concubine for a month.

If the Empress Dowager has just left, Luo Qinghan will let the imperial concubine sit on the back, which is equivalent to pushing the imperial concubine to the edge of the wind, and then everyone will scold her for her beauty and charm and charm the king.

Luo Qinghan didn't want to make Xixi infamy again because of his impulsiveness.

He suppressed the confusion in his heart and said softly.

"Blame me for being so useless and making you feel wronged."

Xiao Xixi looked at him without blinking.

Luo Qinghan felt a little uncomfortable by her.

He frowned and asked, "What do you see me doing?"

Xiao Xixi didn't answer and asked, "Are you in a bad mood?"

Luo Qinghan was surprised: "Why are you in a bad mood?"

Xiao Xixi: "You didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and you came to me suddenly. You must have something on your mind. Tell me, what trouble did you encounter?"

She is the person Luo Qinghan trusts the most in this world. Luo Qinghan has always been undefended towards her. When she asked this, he told all his troubles.

Mainly because of the lack of money in the national treasury.

Luo Qinghan frowned and said, "I really didn't expect the treasury to be so poor."

Xiao Xixi: "Didn't you just copy the Hongguo Gongfu not long ago? I heard that Hongguo Gong is quite rich."

Luo Qinghan: "All the money confiscated from the Hongguo Gongfu went into the Shaofu"

Xiao Xixi looked at him in surprise.

Luo Qinghan understood what she meant, and said helplessly: "There are so many people in the palace, all food and clothing have to be paid for. Where does all the running water come from? In addition to the tributes that are sent from all over the world every year, the other is the income from raiding their homes."

Starting from the previous dynasties, all the property obtained from the raiding of the house should be put into the imperial palace.

This has always been the established rule.

Luo Qinghan didn't expect the treasury to be so poor at that time, so he let the people under him do things according to the rules.

In fact, even if the things from the Hongguo Gongfu are sent to the treasury, it is only a drop in the bucket, and it still cannot solve the fundamental problem.

Luo Qinghan: "The reason why the treasury has no money is the family's fundamental problem."

Xiao Xixi put on a posture of listening intently.

Luo Qinghan said slowly.

"The Great Sheng Dynasty continued the habit of the previous dynasties and treated the family favorably.

The property under the family name does not have to pay tax, and the people from the family do not have to pay tax when doing business.

But the vast majority of the land and business in Dasheng Dynasty is in the hands of the aristocratic family.

They occupy most of the resources of the entire country, but they don't have to pay a penny in taxes. How can this make the national treasury so rich? "

He can't say these words to others. After all, most of the officials in the DPRK are from aristocratic families, and those people naturally stand on the side of the aristocratic family.

In the entire palace, only Xixi could discuss these matters with him.

Xiao Xixi: "Are you planning to reform the taxation system of the Great Sheng Dynasty? Do you want noble families to pay taxes like commoners?

Luo Qinghan nodded slightly: "Well."

Xiao Xixi gave a two-word reply succinctly.

"It's hard."

Luo Qinghan: "It's not just difficult, it's as difficult as going to the sky."

Although the aristocratic families of the Dasheng Dynasty were not as strong as those of the previous dynasties, they still maintained an unshakable position, and they almost monopolized all kinds of resources in this country.

Wanting the family to pay taxes obediently is equivalent to pulling teeth out of a tiger's mouth.

How could the family accept it?

At that time, they are bound to try their best to block the progress of the reform, and the result is bound to be a fierce battle.

Xiao Xixi glanced at him.

"But I don't think you will give up. No matter how difficult it is, you will not back down."

Luo Qinghan smiled lightly.

The person who knows him best in the world is her.

Luo Qinghan took her hand, held it tightly, and said slowly.

"Actually, I have wanted to reform for a long time, not only the tax system, but also the land and foreign trade... I want to re-plan. Since I have taken over this country, I have to let it be in my hands. prosper."

He didn't want to be just a conservative emperor.

What he wants to do is to create a new era of emperors.
